Geomorphogenesis: Screen Prints by Marie Elaine Lalonde

SHARE:

A series of screen prints and paint on wood that explores the morphological relationships found in nature among discordant worlds and fields, including organic, topographic, cartographic, botanic, and geologic. Marie uses photography as a means to capture the landscape and its details, and collects material that will later be scanned. She then reappropriates the information collected on site with digital image processing, printmaking techniques, drawing, and painting.

I seek to illustrate the formal links between the landscape taken as a whole and its details through hybridization and combination processes. The evocation that arises is a form of reminiscence of the sense of place, a more or less conscious material memory, a deep remembrance of the territory.
